right? i'm sure it happened a bit with actual reagan but who the fuck else had cultists literally crying with joy in the streets as they pray to them as a god? Who else inspired "normal" people to storm the fucking white house?

With trump it's like a fucking far cry game

    so one of the big problems with this is.. what if you get falsely convicted for the same thing? Does that mean your suffering is okay?

    No. The only acceptable thing is for no one to be punished like this, ever.

    this is why i think shaming needs to be a more legitimate punishment, it's all but specifically evolved to give us an outlet for our revenge without actually hurting people.
    Let people be sentenced to public shaming, make sure no one takes any more severe actions, and hopefully we can move on with our lives while the perpetrator is rehabilitated or just contained.

    honestly succulents are kind of supreme, they're basically 0 maintenance of any kind.
    Don't need to be watered so long as it rains 5 times per year, even if you don't pick a kind that stays low to the ground it'll just be shaved by the trams so who cares, and they're still quite pretty IMO especially when they decide to flower!
    They're so good that a lot of railways with any sort of dirt between the tracks will just automatically gain succulents after a couple decades.
